Elphie
~#**************#~
Now that were friends, Ive decided to make you my new project
~#**************#~
[ELPHABA, spoken]
~#**************#~
Oh, you really dont have to do that
~#**************#~
[GALINDA, spoken]
~#**************#~
I know!
~#**************#~
Thats what makes me so nice
~#**************#~
[GALINDA]
~#**************#~
Whenever I see someone less fortunate than I
~#**************#~
And lets face it, right? Who isnt less fortunate than I?
~#**************#~
My tender heart tends to start to bleed
~#**************#~
And when someone needs a makeover, I simply have to take over
~#**************#~
I know, I know exactly what they need
~#**************#~
And even in your case
~#**************#~
Though its the toughest case Ive yet to face
~#**************#~
Dont worry, Im determined to succeed
~#**************#~
Follow my lead
~#**************#~
And yes, indeed
~#**************#~
You will be, ah
~#**************#~
Popular
~#**************#~
Youre gonna be popular
~#**************#~
Ill teach you the proper ploys when you talk to boys
~#**************#~
Little ways to flirt and flounce, ooh!
~#**************#~
Ill show you what shoes to wear, how to fix your hair
~#**************#~
Everything that really counts to be popular
~#**************#~
Ill help you be popular
~#**************#~
Youll hang with the right cohorts, youll be good at sports
~#**************#~
Know the slang youve got to know
~#**************#~
So lets start cause youve got an awfully long way to go
~#**************#~
Dont be offended by my frank analysis
~#**************#~
Think of it as personality dialysis
~#**************#~
Now that Ive chosen to become a pal
~#**************#~
A sister and adviser, theres nobody wiser
~#**************#~
Not when it comes to
~#**************#~
Popular
~#**************#~
I know about popular
~#**************#~
And with an assist from me to be who youll be
~#**************#~
Instead of dreary who-you-were
~#**************#~
[GALINDA, spoken]
~#**************#~
Well, are!
~#**************#~
[GALINDA]
~#**************#~
Theres nothing that can stop you from becoming populer… —lar!
~#**************#~
La-la, la-la
~#**************#~
Were gonna make you popular
~#**************#~
When I see depressing creatures
~#**************#~
With unprepossessing features
~#**************#~
I remind them on their own behalf to think of
~#**************#~
Celebrated heads of state
~#**************#~
Or especially great communicators
~#**************#~
Did they have brains or knowledge?
~#**************#~
[GALINDA, spoken]
~#**************#~
Dont make me laugh
~#**************#~
[GALINDA]
~#**************#~
They were
~#**************#~
[ELPHABA, spoken]
~#**************#~
Popular
~#**************#~
[GALINDA, spoken]
~#**************#~
Right!
~#**************#~
[GALINDA]
~#**************#~
Its all about popular
~#**************#~
Its not about aptitude, its the way youre viewed
~#**************#~
So its very shrewd to be
~#**************#~
Very, very popular like me, me
~#**************#~
And though you protest
~#**************#~
Your disinterest
~#**************#~
I know clandestinely
~#**************#~
Youre gonna grin and bear it, your newfound popularity (Woo!)
~#**************#~
La-la, la-la
~#**************#~
La-la, la-la
~#**************#~
La-la, ooh
~#**************#~
Youll be popular
~#**************#~
Just not quite as popular as me
